Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide

This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

Hello,

I wonder, just like jdkaye, what package you plan to install that is only compatible with that specific version of the Linux kernel. I you run the following you'll get a list of the kernel images currently available in the repositories you have configured:

Code:

apt-cache search linux-image

Edit: At http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid-updates/allpackages you can see that the 2.6.35 kernel is available for Lucid with different minor version number (for example 30, 28, 25, 22, ...) depending on the type of kernel you want. So indicating the full correct version will install the desired kernel and dependencies. The one indicated you need (minor 14 does not seem to be available, the first one I can see when browsing is 22 as minor version for 2.6.35.

Currently i'm running on ubuntu x32 kernel version: 2.6.32-21-generic
To fix a bug in an application i need to install necessary package (module) , what i have is :
xyz_1.2.6.32-5-686_i386.deb
The installation of the module completes, however the necessary changes are not taking into affect.
As you said , there seems no ubuntu kernel version that would match the module package that in intend to install on.
